BAD takes on Uncle Phil (and looses)

Phil and Julie cut sick...

Ben, Cam and Adam hit the pipeline on the weekend, and encountered anti tresspass terrorism at it's bets on the way back out. The reliably unstable Phil O'Reilly and his lovely wife attacked Ad's limo, and Phil landed one on Adam during the attack.

Needless to say he's in deep shit now.

And he deserves it...

Powerlines anyone?

BAD Boys loose phones in a week!

Cam's phone didn't appreciate being run over...

In a very bad week for BAD phones, Cam ran over his, Adam lost his and Dunko's died a horrible electrical death recently. News reports tell us that the boys have all recovered and have replaced/updated, but the Mobile Phone Separation Anxiety Counselling Group was busy there for a few days.

Better luck with these phones lads!

B.A.D. takes on Issacs!

...(above)Roscoe says with wheels and a fork, his Giant can go even faster...

(above)...not quite as impressive, but Dunko said 'a break is a break'...

Last weekend saw BAD travel to the nation's capital for the first of many DH races for this year. It was a mixed bag for the boys with some of the boys getting more from their weekend than others..

Roscoe: 'It was great to cement my place at the top of the BAD pecking order again. I was distraught when Dunko flew into the lead a couple of weeks on the Pipeline Masters board. I had a relatively incident free weekend unlike the old bastard and felt as though I had the goods come race day. Spiking Dunko's breakfast didn't hurt either...'

Cam:'All I wanted to do was to be faster than Dunko (and Max) down the hill. Roscoe is on another level at the moment, and I'm still not completely comfortable with my new factory frame. I also had the plan to wake evryone up at about 4.15 on Sunday morning with a shit and a shower which broke the boy's sleep pattern up. I was pretty happy the toilet roll holder enabled me to make so much noise.'

Max:'Cam had told me that Dunko could ride a bit, but all I could see through the lense was him picking his bike out of the rocks and trees all weekend after repeated crashes. We're pretty confident he needs 'Crash Test Dummy' on his riding jersey when they come on in... Other than that, I was happy to get away with that noisy shit and shower I had at about 4.45 on Sunday morning when everyone thought it was Cam. I'm still trying to work out how to get the pictures off the camera onto the computer. Bloody technology'.

Dunko:'Iwas shit and rode like a tosser all weekend. Nuff said. Big up to Team Crimmins cheif medical officer (Ian) who helped dry up my tears and get my bike down to the road after my spill. Probably be still up there otherwise...'

Roscoe came 4th in sport(1.58), Dunko 4th (2.27, second last- the other guy was in a wheel chair) in Vets and Cam was 9th in U19's(2.07).
Of our friends from Tura and bredbo, Jack Senior pulled a 1.55, Andrew bombed down for a 2.04 (1st) and rather predictably, Tomas pinned a lucky 1.42(1st).

next up is Stromlo in June. Will Dunko be healed? Can Roscoe go faster? Will Cam need to drop a deuce in the middle of the night? Will Max discover where the film goes in dad's digital camera? Will Sam Hill's team sign Tomas in the meantime?

Stay tuned riders and drivers for the answers to these pressing matters and more! Till next time, remember what Dunko always says- 'go hard or go to hospital'.

later

Secnd BAD outing bad for Dunko and Barney..

Cam wondered what the result of hitting a Wallaby might be.

The second outing of BAD today spelt a rather painful afternoon for Barney and Dunko after two prett major crashes on the notorious Poweline Trail. The trail was strewn with fallen trees after the recent wild weather, so the boys were picking their way dow the first part of the trail cautiously, but when the trail opened up, Dunko forgot to land his bike straight and paid the price. He ended up sliding quite a way down the leaf and stick strewn shute, copping a couple of nasty stick wounds of the way.
Some minutes (15+)past along with his giddiness and nausea from the off and he gingerly set off again, much to the delight of young Cam (nickname to be decied), who was waiting patiently at the boto of the shute shouting things like 'if you old guys can't stay on the bike, I'm riding by myself from now on!'..
A little further down the trail after they had let Cam go off in front Barney and Dunko prepared to pick their way down the really steep section, which was made somewhat easier by the soft conditions from the recent rains. Barney got stuck in a rut and was picking up speed and releasing his control of the bike when he decided to do his impression of Dunko's earlier crash. He hit the deck violently, making Dunko shudder (not laugh for a change), but was lucky to come up with a dead ass and some impressive slide tackle marks..
Both boys were looking forward to getting inthe shower that night..

Cam looks sharp on his new forks- The Yazuka (Japanese for Wallaby Slayer), and just managed to avoid 2 (two) Wllabies on his his speed descent today. Long may they keep out of his way.!

Are you BAD?
